Buckner is a huge addition to the Colts defensive front. He’s a top DL in the league who ended the 2019 campaign with 7.5 sacks. The only other DT paid more than him at this point is Rams DT Aaron Donald. Elected as team MVP by 49ers coaches last season, Buckner adds a lot of talent to the Indianapolis defense that needed some help on the line. They certainly got that help today with Buckner.
